2025-2026 School System Planning Resources
Super App is a comprehensive application that allows school systems to plan for their needs, access formula funds, and apply for competitive funds on one timeline. When approved, school systems can access federal formula and competitive dollars and meet the federal requirement for each school system's ESSA plan (20 USC §6312). This application includes funding for the core components of school improvement at Comprehensive Intervention Required (CIR) and Urgent Intervention Required - Academics (UIR-A). To learn more about CIR and UIR labels, refer to the Identification of Struggling Schools document or the list of struggling schools.
